The sailors on the Titanic already think something’s off about your group. They have a point. In Gainax’s 1998 PlayStation adventure Silent Möbius: Case: Titanic, Katsumi and the A.M.P. investigate the ship deck by deck. The grand old liner looks familiar until you see the red moon hanging over it.
It’s an adventure game about talking to people and poking around the ship. You move from room to room through menus, and the character portraits carry much of the comedy. When Nami comes back from the funnel covered in soot, Katsumi has to talk her down. In the gym, the sailors want to know if you’re up for a wrestling match.
The ship has quieter corners too. In the café on Deck 2, Katsumi spots a tea set she thinks would look good in Yuki’s shop. The crew has a mystery to solve, but they still find time to tease each other and get distracted by the scenery.
The PlayStation patch puts the dialogue, choices, and opening prophecy in English. The original voices and music stay with the game.
Get the English patch and instructions. If you come aboard, we’d love to hear what you find. Please report any issues along the way.
